Raising the Debt Ceiling

I may not be fully understanding your question. I guess that's close enough to what I asked you though. So what part of the $8 trillion dollar "Trump deficit" WAS excess spending? Please don't answer that question with a question.

Since Donald promised us a balanced budget, and the end of deficits, I would say that every penny was excess spending.

Nancy and her House cannot spend a single $ unless the president signes a bill into law. The onus was on Trump, and you know that you imbecile.

lol.....everyone in the world knows where budget deficits start......no one, not even you, believes Republicans are bigger spenders than demmycrats......in his first two years Biden has already added twice as much to the national debt than Trump did in his first two years and Trump did it while cutting taxes......

Your post as always is total bullshit, while refusing to acknowledge that any House bills must be approved by the President. So just fuck off sweetie.

any House bills approved by a president must be created, molded, and passed by the House, and my wife objects to women calling me "sweetie"......

spending bills add the most to the national debt when created, molded and passed by demmycunts.......that is an undeniable fact......

Trump likes to do things Bigly, including adding debt. He got to top 3 POTUS for adding to debt and was the only one to do so gifted a booming economy, by Obama, whereas the other two Lincoln (Civil War) amd Bush Jr (2008/9 Mortgage crisis and his wars) did so in challenging times.

It is during good times, like Trump had, that gov'ts are to scale back, pay down and not super heat the economy. But the GOP and Trump wanted to brag about how good things were, that they irresponsibly ran up the credit cards, leaving no fail safe for bad times, when Covid hit.

Had Trump won again in 2020, he would be pushing for that #1 spot and adding far more debt than Biden while again, cutting revenues (tax cuts for rich and corporations) massively, while the GOP would be applauding it.

The ONLY reason the GOP does not want the Dem to run up debt, is so they can have more to run up, when they again get power. They look at it as every dollar they can convince and bully the Dem's to not spend, is a dollar they can give to the rich.

Both sides are irresponsible with debt but one side, the GOP, is far worse and needs to STFU.

Stop screwing around. C’mon! 8 trillion dollars! I can think of 2 things right from the git go that you guys have been bitching about for almost 6 years!
 
what is the disconnect with you idiots when it comes to fiscal issues between government and your private lives? you all should fucking know better that borrowing more money to pay back what you borrowed before is a surefire way to bankruptcy. why the hell do you want government doing it?

On Thursday, the U.S. government officially hit the $31.4 trillion debt ceiling.

Translation: The government is cut off and no longer able to pay its bills without taking extraordinary measures.

“The United States runs a budget deficit, which means it doesn’t generate enough money from taxes and other revenue sources to fully fund its operations. In order to fund those operations, the US issues debt to continue to provide services to its citizens and fund expenses. So what does this mean? Lawmakers have a few months to reach an agreement before the U.S. defaults entirely. Some are pushing for an increase to the debt ceiling, others think the U.S. needs to reign in its spending. NEVER HAPPEN WITH SENILE JOE SPENDING LIKE A DRUNKEN SAILOR.

The endless borrowing will collapse the dollar. If our representatives can't control their own spending, then controlling their ability to borrow is absolutely necessary. So, why did they spend $7 Trillion last year while taking in only $4 Trillion?

turn all undocumented refugees away for starters we have no money to support them. Cut military spending push for a peace deal in Ukraine and forget this student loan forgiveness for starters.

The Gov. doesn't collect enough funds to cover the expenses for its operations, so it either cuts the runaway spending or go back to printing, should we put it to a vote?
cancel all the porkbarrel projects they passed to get votes, roll congress salary BACK, and stop supporting idle people. I read on your web only 40% of people pay taxes.

Working for a living is for losers with our current gov't.

We don't have a revenue problem...Congress has a spending problem...Congress is creating this abyss...if we start paying down our $31 Trillion debt $100 Billion per year and incur no new debt, the debt will be paid off in 310 years....sorry folks...we are bankrupt, we are just too stupid to know it...

The 4 largest presidential debts were. 1,. Obama-He had to fix the 2008 Bush economic crash . He did it. no. 2. Trump -Increased spending with massive tax cut centered in the wealthy and corporations. He cut revenue. Can you understand what that does to the debt? 3. George Bush He was just terrible 4. Ronald Reagan who invented saying one thing while doing the opposite.
 
Biden cannot have run up as much deficit in his first two years as Trump. It is not possible. Damn PMP is fucking stupid.
